PR Crime rate is not worst than that of any US major city. However and unfortunately PR rank #6 in homicides in the US. The great majority of murders are drug related and violence against a Tourist has been so far very rare. This site: www.tendenciaspr.com has the most up to date statistics. There is no hiding that Puerto Rico as spot for the drugs route between Latin America and USA, has a drug related crimes problem. But as a tourist you are more likely to be rob or murder in Washington DC or Philadelphiathan in PR.

The tourism has gone down in puerto rico due to the high crime. We cannot go to a puertorican website to see the homicides comparison. Puerto rico has the highest homicide rate in the whole united states. 3 times over. puerto rico is killing 20 people out of every 100,000 residents. that is high. Parts of Europe have a travel advisory on puerto rico. they say and its true ive been there, Cuba is the safest.
